THE NATION’S PRAYER To the Editors of the Labor Press: When we entered into the First World War, Dr. Stelxle wrote a prayer which was published widely in the daily proas of the country. Today, twenty-fire years later, I can think of no more appropriate Easter message for those whose yon scree than to send yon this still timely prayer in whose plea I know that all of us, no matter to what faith we owe allegiance, concur.—RUTH TAYLOR. (1917) _By the REV. CHARLES STELZLE Father of all men, Ruler of the universe, in Whom dwells wisdom, power, love and authority, in this hour when the world is in chaos, and when Thy plans for the redemption of mankind are being worked out in mysterious ways, we be seech Thee to give Thy children everywhere a larger faith in Thyself, a better understanding of Thy purpose and greater courage to fulfill the tasks which Thou has committed to them. We pray, especially, for the men and women of these United States. We pray for our President. Give him the wisdom which comes from above. Guide him in making the decisions which mean so much to our country and the world. We pray for the soldiers and sailors at the front of bat tle and for those who are preparing for service, who have unselfishly given themselves for home and country. May they find in this sacrifice the blessing promised to those who, losin gtheir lives, will find them again—larger, fuller, richer —in this world, as well as in the world to come. We pray for those who are serving their country at home —the mothers and daughters, those who are at work in the factories, the men and women on the farms, those who are giving heart and brain in the creation of plans and the build ing up of the forces which will help win the war. May these all find in their daily tasks opportunities for service as American patriots and defenders of our country. We pray for peace—but only the peace which shall come through the victory of right over wrong, of democracy over autocracy, of the spirit of world-brotherhood over the spirit of national selfishness. To this end bless our country in its fight against the rule of those who stand in their arrogant dominance over the people—until the day shall dawn when all men shall be com rades in a world made safe for the building up of democracy and righteousness, over which Thou shall be the Undisputed Ruler.

Records of many hundreds of eases of “polio” treated in hospitals to city centers show a much higher frequency of the “bulbar/* or dead lier form of polio, and a much higher fatality rate, among patients who had had their tonsils removed, the report points out. The open season for infantile paralysis outbreaks extends from June to November, with the peak number of cases usually reached in August. Having the children’s ton sils out is risky if there are any cases of polio in the vicinity, the report suggests, and in such cir cumstances the operation should be postponed, unless the tonsils are so diseased or otherwise abnormal that the need for immediate removal is urgent. In general, such comparative rec ords as are available indicate a higher susceptibility to infantile paralysis among children without their tonsils, than among those with tonsils intact, the report states, which suggests that the tonsils have a definite protective function, and should only be removed if a men ace to health. Children two years old are the age group most frequently stricken by infantile paralysis, the report states. Susceptibility to “polio” infection drops off sharply above four years of age. However, some adults are stricken in every epidemic. Modern methods of treatment, to eluding hydrotherapy and massage, are getting complete cures in nu merous cases, and a steady advance In understanding of this disease suggests that it may soon be brought under control. 1 Useful Parsley Parsley is, perhaps, the most use ful of all herbs, entering all forma of savory cooking either as season ing or garnish. It is easily estab lished and may be used as a fluted border to an herb garden. Parsley requires an early start. The seeds must be sows a bit deeper than most seeds and they must be cov ered with one-half inch of soil. And now for a word to gardeners who have a fine bed of parsley grow ing in their garden. When using, pick only the'leaves; never disturb the crown of the plant. Being a perennial it is quite hardy. Thyme is an almost indispensable herb for culinary use. Being a hardy perennial it comes up year after year and requires practically no care. In the short run there is nothing more urgent for Labor than to pro duce the tools of victory. In the long run there is nothing more vital for Labor, because victory is the first prerequisite for our very existence and freedom. ---y First of all, we must see our tasks life-size; then we should muster the collective courage and capacities for tackling the ineffectively, honestly and vigorously. — FOB VICTORY: BUY BONDS — RCA Employees Pledge Savings The photo shows part of the vast mass meeting of R.
